Abstract
Certain drugs apparently alter the focus of attention. This paper deals with attempts to confirm and extend knowledge about drug influences on the focus of attention, and to relate the concept of the focus of attention to the concepts of extraversion and introversion used by Eysenck and his co-workers.Keywords
